Chapter 454

~12 min read 2,263 words

At this moment, everyone watching the battle was stunned.

Because a moment ago, Li Yi was still calling the wind and turning it into fire, sweeping across a hundred miles, trying to burn Li Chengyu to death, and Li Chengyu, as a Nascent Soul sword cultivator, had also erupted with terrifying combat power, forcibly splitting the sea of fire and almost killing Li Yi. As a result, no one expected that at this moment when the outcome was about to be decided, Li Chengyu would actually use his natal flying sword, wanting to use cheating means to kill Li Yi.

But no one would have thought that this sure-kill strike would actually be resolved.

A dragon scale flying sword hovered in front of Li Yi's brow, unable to move.

Such a scene almost caused Li Chengyu's mentality to collapse.

This was not only shameful, but the enemy was also not dead.

"How could this be..." The Grand Immortal Elder was also stunned at this time. He wasn't surprised that Li Chengyu cheated and used a flying sword, but was surprised that in this Golden Academy, who could fix a Nascent Soul sword cultivator's natal flying sword at such a moment.

Moreover, Li Chengyu's natal flying sword was at the low-grade magic treasure level.

This life-risking strike was something even he, a Soul Transformation cultivator, would have to weigh. Theoretically, there shouldn't be anyone in the Golden Academy who could stop it, so Li Yi should have been dead without a doubt.

Without such a foolproof method, how could the Grand Immortal Elder have conspired with Li Chengyu to plot the treasures on Li Yi?

"Damn it, these people of the Profound Immortal Continent are playing tricks; they actually used magic treasures during the duel."

Wu Zuohua, a peacekeeper of the Golden Academy, saw this scene and roared in anger immediately. His voice was huge, carrying cosmic energy, diffusing throughout the field and making people's ears buzz.

The other Nascent Soul cultivators' faces turned gloomy instantly.

Because they understood instantly.

This Li Chengyu had long planned to cheat and kill Li Yi to seize the treasures on him. This behavior wasn't just as simple as cheating; it also played them for fools, because this way, this prey, Li Yi, would never be their turn.

As for the questioning from the Golden Academy side.

That's bullshit.

No need to take it to heart. Just a bunch of natives; what can they do if they bark a few times? Anyway, they don't pose a threat.

"Grand Immortal Elder, you despicable old thing, are you playing us?"

Sun Boxiu was also angry now. He felt he had been deceived. He raised his hand, and under his order, the warships above the Golden Academy, as well as the space orbital cannons and the high-energy beam cannons deployed nearby, were all activated at this moment and entered a state of energy accumulation.

At the same time, other experts of the Golden Academy also received the alarm and rushed into the sky from all over, beginning to gather here.

Clearly, Sun Boxiu had long since made a plan, ready to fight to the death with these people from the Profound Immortal Continent at any time.

The Grand Immortal Elder narrowed his eyes and remained unmoved. He was a Soul Transformation powerhouse; no one in the entire Golden Academy could keep him, so he didn't need to worry at all. Therefore, he said very calmly: "Principal Sun, what do you mean by this? I haven't done anything; why are you insulting me?"

"Called a duel, but actually you were prepared to make a sneak attack long ago. Grand Immortal Elder, at this point, do you think you need to keep acting?" Sun Boxiu said angrily.

Li Yi's third duel was bound to die.

Those conditions before were all fooling ghosts; the other party never thought about fighting properly.

The Grand Immortal Elder still narrowed his eyes and said nothing, but his spiritual sense was constantly scanning everywhere, wanting to find the person who had made a move in secret. Although he didn't care about these evolvers of the Golden Academy, he was extremely wary of the person who had made a move in secret.

Being able to fix the Dragon Scale Sword under such circumstances was something even a Soul Transformation cultivator would find difficult to do.

However, at this moment, Li Yi looked at the Dragon Scale Sword before him and laughed: "Interesting, truly interesting. So this is the dignified challenge you spoke of? The key is to reveal a low-grade magic treasure and give me a fatal blow. Once I die, you can immediately plunder the treasures in my hands, right?"

Li Chengyu saw the situation was not right. In his shock and anger, he retreated along the original path, avoiding the sea of fire, unwilling to be involved in it. He then shouted: "Li Yi, there's no need to talk about morality when dueling with a devil like you. I am acting on behalf of heaven; why would I care about some stains on my reputation? And aren't you also ill-intentioned? You could even defend against my Dragon Scale Sword; no wonder Chen Yangzi couldn't kill you before."

He was righteous and didn't feel the slightest bit of shame.

"Fine, very good. A bunch of naturally cunning people, hypocritical and cruel. Since you don't follow the rules, don't blame me for being ruthless. Today, no one from the Profound Immortal Continent will be able to leave the Golden Academy alive. Right and wrong no longer matter. Now, I just want to see you all lying in a field of corpses, blood flowing like a river."

Li Yi's vertical pupils shone with light, his murderous aura astonishing. He flipped his palm, and the Mysterious Yellow Seal appeared in his hand again.

"Just by you?" Li Chengyu said with disdain: "Even if you have that treasure seal, you can't turn the sky."

While speaking, he used his spiritual sense to manipulate the Dragon Scale Sword, wanting to take it back.

However, no matter how he manipulated it, the Dragon Scale Sword remained out of his control, still hovering in front of Li Yi, unable to shake it in the slightest. This made him feel vaguely uneasy, because the power that could so easily fix the Dragon Scale Sword was absolutely not simple.

"Killing you is enough." Li Yi roared, and the Mysterious Yellow Seal in his hand struck out. It didn't attack Li Chengyu, but landed on the magic sword before him.

The talismans on the Mysterious Yellow Seal flickered, and boundless light erupted. Just one strike, and the magic sword before him shattered immediately, exploding on the spot, turning into pieces and splashing everywhere, leaving only a dragon scale emitting boundless cosmic energy intact.

"Pfft!"

His natal sword was destroyed, and Li Chengyu suffered a heavy blow, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His whole person's aura withered instantly, but afterward, he roared in anger: "Li Yi, you dare to destroy my natal sword?"

As a sword cultivator, the natal sword is the most important. Once destroyed, not only is one seriously injured, but the foundation is also damaged, and there is almost no hope of becoming an immortal in the future, unless one re-cultivates.

But the Dragon Scale Sword was at the magic treasure level, something even a Soul Transformation sword cultivator might not be able to refine, but Li Chengyu had it in the Nascent Soul stage, and it had great room for promotion in the future. This was almost equivalent to his foundation for becoming an immortal. Now that it was destroyed, it was almost no different from killing him.

"Destroyed is destroyed; I'm going to kill you too." Li Yi put the complete mystic object dragon scale into his Five Elements Bracelet, and then the Mysterious Yellow Seal in his hand flew out again.

Instantly, boundless light shrouded down, enough to suppress all directions and shake the mountains and rivers.

"My natal sword is destroyed. After killing you and taking the treasures on you, I, Li Chengyu, will still be magnificent."

Li Chengyu was full of blood, gritting his teeth and roaring. At this moment, he took out a small jade sword from his storage magic treasure.

"Master, help me."

He roared and crushed this small sword.

The next moment.

A terrifying sword glow tore through the sky, rushing into the clouds, shaking the wind and clouds of heaven and earth. Just the aura blowing over made people feel pain in their bodies, as if they were about to be torn apart. And in that sword light, a human figure appeared. Although it was only a strand of aura, it revealed a terrifying pressure, its power even exceeding the Soul Transformation stage.

"Who dares to hurt my disciple?" That figure was magnificent and huge, and with every gesture, it possessed boundless divine power.

Li Yi felt this pressure, and his face changed slightly.

A strand of power sealed within that jade sword was already so terrifying.

This kind of strength was probably already past the Heavenly Tribulation.

"Master, kill this person before me, take all his treasures, and strengthen our Sword Sect." Li Chengyu said loudly.

That figure's gaze instantly looked at Li Yi. Just a glance, and the gaze transformed into two sword beams that instantly slashed over. The speed could no longer be described as fast; it seemed to ignore the distance of space and arrived directly in front of Li Yi. Don't talk about dodging; he didn't even have time to react.

However, the next moment.

The sword light shattered instantly when it approached Li Yi, unable to hurt him in the slightest.

"It's like this again..." Li Chengyu's pupils shrank, feeling it was incredible.

One must know that his master had already passed the thunder tribulation and was already a top-tier powerhouse in the Mahayana stage. A strand of sword light was enough to easily slay a Soul Transformation cultivator; it was by no means something Li Yi, an evolver in the Spirit Power Realm, could resist.

"Who?" However, that figure looked up to the sky and shouted, as if sensing some existence that had made a move in secret.

"Sure enough, a bunch of ruthless people. Cheating in a dignified duel and even asking for reinforcements... I'm getting angry just watching. Since Li Yi wants to see you people of the Profound Immortal Continent lying in a field of corpses, blood flowing like a river, then I can only ask you all to help and satisfy this little request of Li Yi's."

A middle-aged priest suddenly appeared from high in the sky. He was draped in five-colored energy, and a phantom, crystal-clear flower bloomed above his head. His whole person emitted a mysterious and profound aura.

The appearance of Daoist Wu instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Even the Grand Immortal Elder was stunned.

Who is this person?

He didn't recognize him at all. Does the Golden Academy have such a person?

Not just him, Sun Boxiu and other Spirit Power Realm experts were also confused. They didn't recognize Daoist Wu; he was very unfamiliar, like an outsider who had suddenly appeared.

"My name is Wu Yong. Six years ago, I crossed the boundary and left; my body was silent. Now I have returned across the boundary, my soul awakened. Not for anything else, just for... killing."

Daoist Wu reported his fake name, while staring indifferently at the figure transformed by the sword energy, and then waved his hand.

Www⊙ttkдn⊙¢o

Five-colored energy erupted, instantly staining the firmament and destroying all things. The entire sky was illuminated in five colors, like a rainbow, but revealing a chilling murderous intent within the beauty.

Just one strike, and the figure of Li Chengyu's master instantly let out a miserable scream and shattered on the spot. Afterward, the remaining power didn't diminish, surging toward him.

"Are you kidding me?"

Li Chengyu roared, not caring about anything else. His Nascent Soul exited his body, and he used the Blood Escape Technique, fleeing for his life.

But he was fast, and the five-colored energy was faster. It had already covered several hundred miles, and there was nowhere to escape.

Just by being covered by the five-colored light, both Li Chengyu's Nascent Soul and his physical body vanished into smoke, turning into dust.

However, after the killing, the five-colored energy didn't dissipate because of this. It was like a great formation, sealing everyone inside, and an inexplicable sense of crisis surged in everyone's hearts.

"This is what I learned after crossing the boundary: the Five-Colored Luo Heaven Technique. I ask you all to appreciate it." Daoist Wu grinned, but murderous intent appeared in his eyes.

This Dao technique was not top-tier, but when performed by an expert of the Three Flowers Realm, it was extremely shocking.

Feeling this chilling murderous intent, all the Nascent Soul cultivators in the air had their faces change, and they retreated several steps in unison.

Wu Yong?

At this moment, Sun Boxiu was both surprised and happy.

He immediately had the AI investigate.

Sure enough, he found information about Wu Yong in the database.

Wu Yong, who had entered cultivation ten years ago, crossed the boundary with his soul six years ago. During this period, he had been lying in a medical pod in silence and had only just awakened recently.

Everything had traces to follow.

This made Sun Boxiu breathe a sigh of relief.

Since he was a genuine Earthling, that was good.
